Drive By Lily #1, Established Pastel Artist
Drive By Lily #1
On a walk early on a summer morning, I walked by an assuming little house with a narrow, overgrown driveway. In the middle of the weeds grew the most beautiful Oriental lilies, so beautiful with the filtered sunlight. I photographed from many angles, came home and started my painting. I use terra cotta Pastelmat. I do a very loose gesture drawing with a Nupastel. I then establish my values, the temperature of my palette… then I’m off and running.
